Yahoo News I'm A Celeb 2023: Nella Rose ends Nigel Farage friendship over heated debate
Jamie Lynn Spears also quits ITV jungle show - her final scenes aired on Wednesday
I'm A Celebrity's Nella Rose has ended her friendship with Nigel Farage after their cultural appropriation debate. "Let's not be best buds," she told him.
They had struck up an unlikely friendship initially after meeting - despite having different views, ages and backgrounds. But now it is all over.
Farage wanted to find out why Rose was avoiding him and not speaking to him but she admitted at first: "I don't really want to talk about it."
They had become locked in a fierce debate on Tuesday over cultural appropriation after the campmates had been saying wata in a Jamaican accent.
On Wednesday, she explained: "I feel like you were very dismissive about cultural appropriation."
Rose added: "I don't like talking to you Nigel. You will flip it into something else."
But the politician tried to explain himself saying: "No, I was concerned. If I'm filmed saying wata I'll get accused of cultural appropriation."
Rose questioned: "How does that get you any sort of backlash?"
Farage said he was using the example of dressing up as a Mexican at a fancy dress party - which upset Rose.
"I really didn't appreciate it," she said.The former Ukip leader apologised but the influencer said it was best they weren't friends.
She said: "You are always going to have your opinions. I'm going to have always my opinions. Let's not be the best of buds."
She pointed out their differences. Farage understood saying: "It's an age thing too." Rose is 26 while Farage is 59.
He said: "Cultural appropriation didn’t exist 30 years ago. Prince Harry went to a fancy dress party as a Nazi. He got a lot of stick for it." He admitted he was worried about saying 'wata'.
Earlier in the episode, Farage called "I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here" in the Bushtucker trial In Too Deep with Nick Pickard.
"I've let everyone down," he said. They went back to camp with six stars after Farage failed to get a single star because he was unable to stay underwater.
Farage and Pickard were put into tanks with sea creatures - including eels - where they must then duck to get the stars. But the eels and the python didn't bother Farage. "I couldn't hold my breath," he explained.
Elsewhere, Jamie Lynn Spears is the second star to quit in a matter of days and her final moments in the jungle have been revealed.
TV bosses confirmed that Britney's sister would make her final scenes in the ITV jungle reality series on Wednesday after quitting the show on medical grounds.
Her decision to quit the show hasn't been an easy one, having been missing her two daughters from the moment she entered the Australian jungle.
In highly emotional scenes this week, Spears tearfully shared her eldest daughter nearly died and relived the family's traumatic ordeal.
Along the way, there have been many signs Spears was going to leave as she threatened to quit on multiple occasions.
It seemed her friend Sam Thompson saying she was "crying wolf" over wanting to go home when she had been crying was one of the last straws.
ITV confirmed her exit in a statement: "Jamie Lynn Spears has left I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! on medical grounds. She's been a fantastic campmate who has triumphed at trials and bonded well with her fellow celebrities."
It follows the fallout of Grace Dent leaving the jungle on medical grounds who said leaving the stars was "one of the saddest things in my life".
Later on, Rose had to leave the I'm A Celebrity camp to see the medic but she has since returned to see her fellow campmates. She was exempt from the trial on her return.
There has been no shortage of drama this year and the I'm A Celebrity rows have sparked huge complaints with Ofcom from viewers at home.
